Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray or a coat with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. 
  2. Cook ground turkey, queso, and fajita seasoning together until meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  3. While the meat is cooking, prepare all fresh ingredients for your salad by chopping your lettuce and slicing your bell peppers, jalapeno, lime, and avocado. Have your shredded cheese, queso, and salsa verde ready to use.
  4. Once your meat is done cooking, assemble all ingredients in a bowl starting with the lettuce. Add your fresh ingredients and top with lime juice, more queso, cilantro, and extra salsa verde. Enjoy with a fork or scoop with nachos!

Notes

  • This recipe is a great foundation to other Mexican dishes. So, if you aren't feeling taco bowls and want something a little heartier, try using these ingredients to make enchiladas, burritos, a quesadilla, an omelet or egg scramble, or even Mexican-style Sloppy Joes!
  • As you are cooking your meat, make sure you are constantly stirring it so it breaks apart and doesn't cook as one big chunk. Also, ensure your meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F so you know it's cooked through.
